Brunch at maialino

Maialino is the perfect brunch spot - nice natural light pouring in, a great hustle and bustle without being overly loud or crowded, no crazy waits, and a good amount of non-"brunchy" items on the menu.

The brioche caramelleto I had to start is definitely going under my best bites ever list. It is a warm, gooey, toffee glazed glob of deliciousness. I inhaled my baked eggs in spicy tomato sauce and guanciale, and went to work on J's porchetta. The side of thick cut pepper bacon is no joke - it's literally a half inch thick or so.

I had a little fun with my buddy Siebe's Filmpan presets that he kindly gifted me. I used "Made in Japan +" and "Made in Japan Pink +" here on these Fuji x100 shots.

They look really yummy!!! I don't know why, but every time I hear/read about brunches it reminds me of Gossip Girl!!! For me is the perfect new yorker meal :)I love the feeling that Siebe's presets gave to your pictures!! The perfect complement.. and I didn't know about his Filmpro pack!! Going straight to my wishlist ^__^

About

The title, "Lingered Upon," is taken from one of my favorite T.S. Eliot poems, "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock." Here, it could mean that I lingered upon some moment and made a photo of it. On this blog, you'll find both personal work and "work" work, with plenty of travel and style mixed in.
